Join us on the 5th & 6th July for a festival of firepower!
Come down to The Wardrobe in Salisbury Cathedral Close and meet troops from the 'Wellington's Artillery' living history group as they set up camp for the weekend. These Waterloo-era re-enactors will be bringing plenty of firepower and will be exhibiting a range of weapons, including cannons and muskets. If you've ever wanted to get up close to the guns that defeated Napoleon- here's your chance!
Alongside their weapons demonstrations, these brilliant re-enactors provide full living history camp displays and foot drill. Walking through their encampments will take you back in time over 200 years, putting you in the shoes of a Napoleonic-era artillery soldier.
Entry to the event is by donation. All donations go towards the upkeep of the museum and our ongoing redevelopment.
